There are scammers and then there is this mythomaniac piece of work, who keeps popping up like herpes. Wish there was some way to get rid of her for good.

I've unfortunately been scammed by this person as well, I've filed a dispute through paypal and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, so we'll see what comes of that, but I'm ready to write it off as a loss.

Holy shit. How did you end up transferring them THAT much money?

That "lawyer" threat is definitely a continuation of the scam. It's a classic, don't give it credence.

Do you have a legal recourse here? Or a way to reverse payment?

- He also took 10k of that from his mother. So not a lot of sympathy from my end. Arguably the most moronic display of simphood I've ever seen. And no, he can't get it back. I believe he tried though, but the person he sent it to is protected by some legal loophole, essentially. :zombie:

The guy who sent the 30k+, I was told he basically knicked/stole 10k of it from his own mum to pay it... Just process that for a moment. :zombie:

Don't listen to oVoodo123, he/she is the scammer, or part of it. And no, I didn't steal from my mother, it was my own money!

How DID you end up giving them nearly S40K of your own money, if you don't mind me asking?

Lost $150 to this individual, paid upfront for a commission a month ago, they failed to deliver so much as a WIP. Two weeks after initially being contacted by them, they came asking to borrow $600, that didn't fly in the least bit. They're currently using the Discord ID Kyla #1438, and using the name Kyla Marie-Schroeder. I didn't think to save the drop box file with their "work" that they used to sucker me in, this lone image they sent through discord is all I have, don't know if it helps.

Also, I believe the discord account usualsuspects#3290 may be them as well, or at least associated with them.

I'm sorry to hear that from you, I was almost a victim of this one's scam as well, but I thankfully got cold feet and asked for a second opinion from another artist I commissioned recently. He was able to identify him before we called him out and had the account taken down

Seems to be running as Ellie23 on discord at the moment, as far as I can tell.
